Sony Xperia X Compact. It has a 4.6-inch display is the only new Android phone that (1) is decently powerful, and (2) can get away with the third part of its name. It’s as small as you’ll get on Google’s side of the fence. It works on GSM networks (i.e., AT&T and T-Mobile), and it’s available now for $499 unlocked. The Xperia X Compact’s size will either be its biggest strength or its biggest annoyance.
The display has a 720p resolution, which sounds woefully outdated, but presents very few hints of pixelation on a panel this small. Its colors are pleasing (but can be adjusted if needed), it can get nicely bright, it’s easy to read outside, and it doesn’t wash out when you view it from an angle. For a not-OLED screen, it’s good.
The phone also supports Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 standard, which helps it refill fast (if you buy a compatible charger). That said, it’s not as long-lasting as a lower-res phone could be. The iPhone SE, for one, blows it out of the water.
